With the Kingdom of Balian settling into its new home, the final touches of the Palatio Arancione have been completed. The Andromedan Court sees fit to open the Palatio Arancione to the public for the first time in the form of an Inaugural Ball. The Balianese people have faced major hardship over recent years, yet we have persevered and found a new life for ourselves on La Costa Rubinissima. To honor this newfound prosperity, the Inaugural Ball shall be themed around the concept of rebirth.

THE TIMETABLE

THE MONTH OF PETER’S GLORY

The Citrus Harvest

As the Kingdom of Balian grows anew, so do the fruits of Rosemoor Rest. Seen as a symbol of Rebirth, fruits are the result of a year’s worth of labor by a plant to continue the cycle of life. Following Their Royal Majesty’s first Royal Court, the courtiers of the Andromedan Court are invited to the Citrus Grove to pick a fruit that they feel best represents them.

Saturday, June 10th, 5:30 PM EST

 

THE MONTH OF SUN’S SMILE

The Inaugural Ball

The Balianese People and their allies shall gather within the grand ballroom of the Palatio Arancione for the first official Ball of the Andromedan court. Guests should don clothes which represent the fruit they chose the previous Saint Day, either as the color of the fruit or some other physical representation. An abundance of fruit from La Costa Rubinissima shall be arranged for the guests to graze over while not on the dance floor.

Sunday. June 11th, 6:30 PM EST
